The Old Pontian Cafe (Lot One)

This is hands down my FAVOURITE popiah ever. Everytime I'm craving for popiah, I know I can always settle for the one from Pontian because it never disappoints! 💕👼🏻

PROS:
- THE ABUNDANCE OF FILLINGS! 💯🤤
- the quality of popiah is consistent across all their outlets - the turnips are always incredibly juicy and the peanuts are distinctly fragrant 😛
- a tiny shrimp is added into each roll of popiah as well 🍤
- the popiah skin is chewy and it might be a tad too thick, but it always does an amazing job of holding the fillings together to prevent them from falling out easily 😉
- the size of this popiah is A LOT larger compared to your regular popiah, which explains its higher price tag

CONS:
- might be a little pricey at $2.80 per roll (but then again, it's the quality AND quantity you're paying for!)
- sadly, not every Pontian cafe sells popiah 😧 also, the price of each roll of popiah varies across different outlets (it ranges between $2.60-$2.80 per roll); really hope that they could make popiah a permanent item on their menu that is available at all their outlets!

overall rating: 10/10 🤗

Convenient place to get my popiah fix. $2.80 per roll is not cheap but its size does the justification. Taste wise more towards the sweet side, would always ask for more chilli to add on some savoury flavors.

$4.50 for small. Tasty, large serving. Soup could be thicker in taste but decent enough. Feels MSG laden though. Has lard :) 2 x prawns given; could be fresher. Overall worth trying at least once.
